Thanks to consumer advocate Jack Gillis, author of the 2014 Car Book, and the efforts of the Center for Auto Safety, we are able to provide you with the Top 20 vehicle complaints on file with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Each year, thousands of Americans call their government to register complaints about their vehicles. The complaint index is based on a ratio of the number of complaints for each vehicle to the sales of that vehicle. The numbers represent relative index scores, not the number of complaints received. The complaint index score considers sales volume and years on the road. Lower index numbers are better. The Car Book is available for sale through The Center For Auto Safety if you are interested in purchasing a copy.

Ayup, and I'll be darned if I'll 'upgrade' to a Chevy Volt to get a better number.
